5 Best Burger Restaurants near Catoosa

“Our first time in, but it will definitely not be the last!! We both got the prime rib burger.🍔😋 I got a side of onion rings, and he opted for the cheese curds, which were absolutely delicious!!! (I'll be getting them next time. Lol)
The staff was very friendly, and we even had one of them ask if he wanted caramel sauce to dip his cheese curds in. Lol. He's not a dipper, like at all! She kept saying how good it was, and he just kept shaking his head. She then asked if he wanted ranch to do them in. Lol. Again, no thank you, I don't need any dip!🤣😂 I mean, if it were mine, I believe I would've had to at least try the caramel sauce just because it sounds soooooo crazy! 🤷🏽‍♀️😅
All in all, the food was delicious, the service was great, and we will definitely be back!!“

“Located directly across from the Hard Rock Casino, and adjacent to Catoosa high school, the location makes it a busy stop for lunch and late night visitors. My visit today was for an early Sunday breakfast (0900); we had our fill of inflated casino meal pricing and knew that IHOP would deliver the goods at half the price.

Grounds/Parking: grounds are immaculate, not sure if the grounds are integrated with the shopping center, but kudos for landscaping, and a clean large parking area. Most IHOP parking lots on Sunday morning are littered with Saturday night beer cans and trash, someone had this place spotless at 0900; good job !

Interior: Standard IHOP seating, however the building has large bay windows on three sides, lots of natural light which brightens the usual drab IHOP interiors. Interior, like the exterior, was clean, no sticky tables or seating, empty tables are bussed and cleaned promptly.

Food: We ordered the true and tried “quick breakfast”: Eggs over easy, bacon, pancakes, Pot of Coffee. Order was received promptly, and food was delivered hot. Although the food was good, the portions have shrunk, considerably, since our last visit six months ago. The eggs are small, bacon tiny, my spouses sausages look like Vienna cocktail wieners. Pancakes were normal, but the syrup was unmarked and contained some generic “goo” (I’m from Vermont, so I’m usually Karen-picky about fake syrup). Coffee was okay. I had to mark down the rating from a five to a four because of the serving sizes, perhaps this is unfair as the portion size reduction was likely a corporate decision, and the IHOP locations are forced to buy from the “company store”.

Service: A bit lackluster. Waitress was not very friendly, but it’s an early Sunday morning shift and no one is too “Flo” bubbly at that hour. She did take our order promptly, order was accurate, and checkout fast and painless; all is forgiven.

Overall I recommend this place for road warriors, but especially for casino patrons that want a decent meal without the casino extracting your remaining cash. The food size portions have taken a hit, likely corporate wide, but it’s still a good value compared to the casino, or the “popular” breakfasts places with an hour long waitlist.“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ FLIP SIDE – FAST, RELIABLE, AND EXACTLY WHAT YOU EXPECT
Flip Side is the Hard Rock’s dependable quick-service grill, offering burgers, chicken tenders, fries, hot dogs, and simple salads. It’s designed for speed, accuracy, and late-hour reliability. Orders typically come out fast, even during heavy post-show rushes, making it a go-to option when you need real food without a long wait.
Quality is consistent across time of day. Burgers stay intact without falling apart, fries hold their crunch, and chicken tenders retain good texture. For a food-court environment, Flip Side performs better than expected, especially with items cooked fresh during peak turnover.
Its biggest advantage is predictability — whether you’re grabbing lunch, a quick dinner, or a 1 a.m. refuel, you know what you’re getting and how long it will take. For families or groups trying to eat quickly before scattering back across the casino, it’s a reliable anchor.
🔥 GRILL FRESHNESS ALERT — WATCH THE TURNOVER
Food quality peaks when the grill is turning over orders rapidly. Burgers and patties cooked during high-traffic windows are noticeably fresher and hotter than those prepared during quiet lulls.
📌 Tip: If you see staff loading fresh patties onto the grill, place your order — the next batch will be the best of the night.
🍔 Food pick: The blackened chicken sandwich — flavorful, leaner than a burger, and still fast to prepare.“
